365 Daily Readings
Some Talk About The Cost Of Following Christ, Dietrich Benhoeffer Paid The Price.
Deitrich Bonhoeffer's faith-driven resistance to the Nazis during World War II resulted in his
execution. Multitudes have been inspired by the hauntingly powerful words of this man who was
willing to die for his convictions. In this collection of 365 meditations, Dr. Charles Ringma allows
us to experience the power of Bonhoeffer's words in a way that challenges us to live out our
discipleship daily -- combining personal spirituality with an active concern for those around us.
These daily mediations on Bohnoeffer's writings may make you uncomfortable. But if you are
willing to wrestle -- as Bonhoeffer did -- with what it means to be a follower of Christ, you'll be
empowered to seize each day.
